Eric Smith’s Multimedia Reflection
- 1. Eric Smith’s Multimedia Reflection EDIT 202
- 4. Major Followees (1 of 3) • Partners For Youth Empowerment • @pyeglobal – An international charity that believes that creativity has the power to open doors and transform lives. – Their mission is to awaken the purpose, power and possibility of young people around the world. – They show youth facilitators how to create safe environments in which young people feel able to take creative risks and express themselves freely. – In turn this allows them to become more confident, more focused and more articulate. • This group is a really good one for me to follow because it shows how my passion (drama and arts, in general) can help kids and really give them a useful and open learning environment. One of the greatest groups I have ever come across.
- 5. Major Followees (2 of 3) • The 2Learn.ca Education Society • @2Learn_ca – Their mission is to initiate, advocate, and share with educators technology-enriched teaching, learning and leadership options of tomorrow, empowered by unique alliances with educational and community partners. • This group helps me in what I hope to be pursuing because the future is technology and we all need to be prepared and taught how to do it properly, these people help and in a very supportive atmosphere.
- 6. Major Followees (3 of 3) • National Council on Teacher Quality • @NCTQ – Based in Washington, D.C., the National Council on Teacher Quality was founded in 2000 to provide an alternative national voice to existing teacher organizations and to build the case for a comprehensive reform agenda that would challenge the current structure and regulation of the profession. • This is very important for teachers, in general, to know that someone or something is looking after their best interests and so that they will be taken care of, no matter what. Security is important.
- 7. Brief Interactions • I actually got into contact with Partners for Youth Empowerment to see if they had some advice for me to help promote it around our communities and such, they were really helpful, with great tips.
